How about some badass engineering: the highest bridge in the world.





Like other suspension bridges, a pilot cable must cross the span first to act as a guide before the main cables can be installed. Because they could not use helicopters or boats like other bridges, rockets were used instead.

Because of the perspective in the first photo the right-hand side of the bridge looks like it's just floating in mid-air.

Do you often find yourself getting upset about certain fabrics or materials? Do certain combinations of colours fill you with rage or other inexplicable emotions? Be ashamed no more - there's a place where you'll feel at home! Come to the US of A, third left off the motorway's Charlestown exit, and we'll make sure that you never feel ashamed of your fabric-anger again!

Actually while we're on the topic of flags, which flag do you guys think is sexiest? I want to bang the Thai flag so hard but there's something about the Georgian (the country not the state lol) flag that makes me a little curious, like I don't swing that way but sometimes I wonder what it'd be like, you know? Fwiw the French flag does absolutely nothing for me, people go on and on about how much they jerk off to it but I really just don't see the appeal. What do you guys reckon

I'm not saying these guys aren't bad rear end, running sub 6 minute splits on varied terrain for 50 miles is pretty bad rear end but running ultras and beyond is so loving stupid, like crossfit levels of stupid. You're quite literally killing yourself as you run.

Is it really that bad? I'd be interested to read an article or two. I had a quick look and read one by the Washington Post but it didn't seem too crazy. Is it worse than drinking alcohol, taking soft drugs, or just spending your life moving between seated positions and lying positions?

I'm not trying to be sarcastic or disingenuous or anything, I'd just be interested in quantifying the relative damage.

The player who catches the ball also has a lot of trust in his teammate to still hold onto the ball when he's already way past the point where his body knows is normal for a catch like that. He doesn't actually free up a hand (in case the guy holding him slips) until it's already too late

Just a friendly reminder, when they talk about wave height it is measured from the back of the wave rather than the front. The face of the wave is generally about twice the height of the back so that's a 160' wall of water there.

To be fair, it's not like there's an actual problem they're trying to solve, nor do most politicians actually care one way or another. Elections have been fought over and won by whomever can provide the most ruthless response to non-white asylum seekers coming to Australia by boat. It's just a tactic to win elections, both parties do it, and it's pretty effective. Unlike actually unpopular government initiatives (like all that surveillance/big brother poo poo), they're doing it because a significant number of Australians are (surprise surprise!) garbage humans and this is how democracy works
